lol@easy pases in his own half You watch the games, right? He is the spark, last year or something he regularly made insane assists from his own half, through three lines of opponents, it was INSANE, this year maybe he doesn't do that as much, but he is the one who tries to break the opponents...

Is this the one game ever where you could see that trend? Busquets is needed to be the spark in this team, since the AMs and the wingers offer NO creativity, and also lack A LOT in their off the ball movement. Some game maybe he falls under 80%, but was he ever close to 75% over a few games...

Why is this poster "Jamdav"etc here? Replying to all the threads with a sandy pussy without ever reading what he responds to? Did he use to post better before? He is blatantly destroying this forum with his negativity and smallmindedness!? Can he ever agree to anything? Can he post something...

Pep has played like this with his wingers, f.e when he had Sterling and Sane. Henry goes on about how genius Pep was for giving him this instruction back then too. Problem is when you rely too much on creativity from there, and are too soon to get the ball there. Dembele is a cul de sac, he...

He only needs to retain the form he had for the last few days and it will be ez to turn this around

They were similarly good, but Suarez is the same age as Messi, so. Eto'o could maybe sort of have a case some year, even if I don't remember which, Suarez wasn't ever close to Messi, and I believe Ronaldo too either scored more or won more pretty much every year.

I said that he was Barcelonas worst player ever or close to it, after maybe 2 performances. First I was going to make a comment about Bellerin and those saying he has been very bad at Barcelona and that it's hard to judge after only 3 starts from him, but Emerson shows it is possible. I didn't...

With the right mindset he could learn more from Busquets than from anybody else I can think of. The problem looks to me to be that he got a guaranteed spot too early, and with that came the laziness and stagnation. He is apparently playing well enough to start each and every time both for...

Not against using hyperbole comparisons for arguments, but dragging Messi into the conversation about Dembele is just wrong. Raphinha is on a higher xA than Dembele this season btw, wouldn't be surprised if he out-assists Dembele this season in the end. Not that I think Raphinha is a very...

Yesterday: 30 minutes, 2 shots, 0 on target. 47,1% pass completion (forty seven point one percent) Apart from the game back in October against Athletic where he assisted thrice and scored once, he has scored twice and made zero assists in his last 16 games for Barcelona.

I thought it was a Pyrrhic victory at the time (and I believe this proved to be correct as well)

Argentina made me more happy in this tournament than Barcelona ever did these last ten years.

Yeah the defenders he'll face from France, Argentina, Morocco and Croatia will be knackered after having had a week off after having played a stunning 7 games in a month. If anything, there is a risk Haaland will show a lack of match fitness compared to those who participated in the world cup...

Nice shot Depy, heheheheh edit: oh no he redeemed himself immediately, joke on me

I am here, sobered up a bit though

Was a bit disappointed by the way he handled Barcelona, he got a bit lucky that year, with the greatest squad ever pretty much... But I am, and have always been, very impressed by his Spain NT performance, making a lot of strong choices which most often proves to be correct, his team playing...

Pedri, Gavi, Busquets dominating and playing almost perfectly here, Alba and Torres also looking good.

I see, that was what I expected and feared. I guess it is reasonable, and one month will be the world cup anyways, but I wish I could see some MLS before then! Is this a period where many transfers (drafts?) are made, or are they mainly made in the main European transfer window in summer: are...

Didn't know Tello was there, remained on the bench for the QF derby against Galaxy, where I watched. That game went to OT and LAFC won 3-2 at the end, then they went on to crush Austin 3-0 before the finals today I see. My question here is, when will we be able to watch Riqui and the others...

He could (and should) shoot more and make more decisive passes, but his main and greatest problem is his lack of a good ability to circulate the ball in a constructive, creative manner. When he doesn't find the decisive option he looks after, he is too satisfied with just finding a team mate...
